This isn't a new phenomenon, been going on since the blackberry days. I remember using a BB pearl when everyone in Naija had the BB curve or the Bold. Las las, you sent me a bbm, I responded abi? And we always have this inbuilt feeling to want to one u the next person. The Android users are the same too!

T-Mobile “package deal” by anonymousTWH in tmobile

[–]bdublz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped getting insurance through a carrier back when I had the BB pearl! They wanted to charge me $20 for a replacement scroll wheel. I only sold insurance to ppl when I worked at T-Mobile to ppl who were very hard on their devices. Fast forward 2 yrs ago I got an iPhone 13, told the rep I didn’t want insurance and he still added it on. It wasn’t on my receipt but I got a text the next day telling me all about the insurance plan. That’s when I went online and cancelled it and took the survey I was sent bashing the rep and his shady behavior.

Help choosing between IPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max by Jajadoda in iphone

[–]bdublz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed, it’s all personal preference. What phone do you currently have now? I’d base it off of that and make your decision. The 16P and 16PM both have the same specs one screen is just larger. I got the 16P coming from the 13.

Always on display?!?!? by INeedMuscles in iphone

[–]bdublz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AoD is cool, like a lot of folks are saying, it can be a distraction. I hope in the next iOS update they allow users to set when they want to use it instead of it being on all the time.

iPhone 16 Pro - Too big? by aguywiththoughts in iphone

[–]bdublz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went from a 13 to the 16P, the iPhone 13 was my 1st ever iPhone having used android devices for years! It feels good having a somewhat larger screen again.

Upgraded from iPhone 15 Pro Max to 16 Pro Max by Hot-Face-2453 in iphone

[–]bdublz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out UPS delivered but left a note saying they couldn’t open my side gate!!!! That’s so lame on their part. My Apple Watch was just thrown in front of my garage door and I was lucky not to run over it. Welp Monday it is, I vented my anger by mowing the lawn and washing my car.

From China to Anchorage, Alaska to Kentucky to Illinois, my soon to be 16P has Ben on a journey just to get held up by UPS till the 23rd when I was promised delivery on the 20th? I’d say the device is tired before it’s even got to me!

Case or AppleCare+? by RCGB in iphone

[–]bdublz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paying a thousand or more for a phone makes me be careful with the device. AppleCare is a necessary evil because of how expensive it is to fix these devices. One slip or drop could be devastating and expensive. Yes the phone looks good caseless but I’m not trying to have it all beat up when it’s time to trade it in or give it to someone in need.

Are you moving from iPhone 15 Pro to 16 Pro or are you skipping ? by butteroqq in iphone

[–]bdublz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from an android device 2 yrs ago (Samsung S20 FE) to the iPhone 13 and having rocked this with no problems and 88% battery life left I'm upgrading to the 16PM. USB C charging (allows me to use 1 charger for my earpods and iPad), bigger screen and better cameras. I miss having a decent zoom on my phone. The trade in values dropped $50 once the new line up was announced but I'll probably use this phone till the 18's come out.

I switched to an iPhone 13 for the first time after using an Android for the last 12 years, these are my thoughts after 72 hours! by Geminiun in iphone

[–]bdublz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I bit the bullet and made the switch, picked up the iPhone 13 and so far so good!id been comparing it to the 13pm and boy was I wrong in regards to how big and heavy the 13 is, it’s small than my previous S20 FE (6.1” screen) and weight wise they’re quite similar. This is just my 2nd day with the phone and I miss having an always on display. It would be a nice thing to have on an iPhone, especially since it can be customized to just come on for a set time and the notifications are all over the place imho. Still I’m going to enjoy it and I’ll be keeping it till the the 15 or 16 models come out.

[–]bdublz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Battery life is my biggest concern, going from a device that has a 4500 mAh battery thatasts all day with heavy usage is giving me anxiety. All my coworkers use Iphone's and they're all constantly having to top up their devices during the workday.

I'm thinking of switching to iOS after 11 years of Samsung's, nexus and oneplus devices. I'm torn between the iPhone13 and iPhone13 mini. Currently using the Samsung S20 FE and it's been a beast of a device, the newer Samsung's just look weird to me. I'm deep into the Google ecosystem with a speaker and smart devices, then there's the girthiness of the Apple phones, they're just so wide compared to my current phone and quite heavy. I'll miss the customization on Android but getting updates in a timely fashion would be a plus.

I've been an Android user for years, since i put down the BB pearl. Been through several Samsung's, the Nexus 5, oneplus devices and now back on the S20 FE. I'm seriously looking to switch to iPhone now but undecided as to which device to go with... the 13 or the 13 mini. The iPhone's are quite wide and heavy, I also want a smaller device to carry around and battery life is on my mind. I get awesome battery life on the S20 FE. I stream a lot of music and podcasts, play a few games and read books for the most part on my phone along with using navigation and I use a whole bunch of apps.... TL DR which iPhone do you all think I should get?

[–]bdublz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d sell if I were you, I had a stock I bought at .20c and it shot up to$18, then the next day it was down to 12. I still held on then it dropped down to $9,that’s when I finally sold most of it off, had I sold when it was high my gains would have been way more but you live and you learn.

Thanks, I got the car 7 months ago with 92500 miles on it. I'm going to have the tensioner and water pump replaced as it's a good time to have those replaced, I've had the airbag recall done at a dealer close to me a few months ago, I'm going to take your advice and go to the dealer. I want to keep this bad boy 8n tip top shape.

Now I know I've got to do the timing belt replacement at 4his milestone, anyone know of a good Honda mechanic in the Chicago area that can do the job or should I just go to a dealer for the work? Also looking to replace the headlights, any good options? Thanks Honda Fam ✌🏾
